Hi Nancy I will answer the questions I can. 1. You can use Epogen or Darbeopoetin to increase red cell production but I have no direct experience with either. However, first, I think that the Winstrol acts on the precursor cells in the bone marrow that produce red cells, white cells and

The dose is the same for all cats. 1 mg 2 times a day is usually fine, unless it is an emergency and you need to get the Winstrol acting much faster, in which case you can increase the dose to 2 mg 2 times a day. Obviously, try to dose about 12 hours apart. Amani From: Felvtalk
